Time Series Investigations
Notable Changes (Upper 15% of Rises or Declines in a Given Year)
I calculate the change of total homicides and average homicide rates for 5 year intervals, i.e. 1946-50 vs 1951-55 etc. Changes are always nominal, i.e. if there were 10 total homicides in 1946-50 and 15 total homicides in 1951-55, then the change is 5. If the average homicide rate was 0.2 in 1946-50 and 0.1 in 1951-55, then the change is -0.1.
I define a notable decline or a notable rise as the top 15% percent of rises and top 15% of declines in a given year for a given metrics.
I then interact these notable declines or rises with black residency according to 1950 maps and riots in the 40s and 50s.
Preliminary Notes:
- These charts intend to investigate changes in homicides given what we know about changes in other factors in that time period.
- Riots do not ever seem to interact with changes in homicides in the immediate hexagon in which the riot takes place.
- Most variation in homicides (and not notable from this map but homicides full stop) take place in areas with black residency. However, there does not seem to be an immediate directional trend - there are both numerous hexagons with declines and rises in homicides.
- The number of hexagons with notable rises or declines for specific characteristics appears fairly stable. However, for example, notable declines with black residency since 1939 and black migration to 1950 does seem to double (perhaps a lagged effect of black migration?).

## • `` -> `...1`Select Years of Highway Construction
Notes on Highways: https://docs.google.com/document/d/1VVL-i87A_hBrtvJCNCINOAzE-xXXuCf4xSevoAj3nxA/
The tables below use preliminary data on highway construction dates. I combine these with a) changes in homicides and b) series of homicide snapshots over time.
Preliminary Notes:
Eisenhower Expressway
- At least parts of the expressway started construction in 1949.
- Does appear to have been built in an area where homicides were already high.
- However, we do seem to see a clustering of homicides around the highway after 1950.
Edens Expressway
- Very unclear when construction began, but likely late 40s.
- No clear clustering occurring around the highway. We do see the occasional year with homicides close to the highway end, but not clear that the trends change after construction is started or that these homicides occur more frequently around the highway than elsewhere.
Bishop Ford Freeway / Calumet Expressway
- Very unclear when construction began, but likely late 40s.
- Similar to Edens Expressway.
1946 - 1950 comparing to 1941-45
1955 - 1960
Stevenson Expressway
- Construction started after 1956
- There may be some increased frequency of homicides around highway after construction begins but unclear if there really is a trend.
Kennedy Expressway
- Construction began 1956 - 1957
- Generally not a lot of consistent clustering but select years such as 1968, 1964, 1960 seem to have a clear cluster along the highway.
- Note that the Kennedy expressway seems close to Anita’s line of longest gaps - will need to do more work to look into that.
Dan Ryan Expressway
- Construction began after 1956
- Appears to have been built in an area with high rates of homicides.
- However, notably years like 1958 to seem to suggest increased clustering specifically around the highway.
- Generally, looking at changes from 1956/60 to 1961/65, we do seem to see an increase in the number of homicides on the south part of the highway. Further, there seems to be some decline along the northern parts.
Chicago Skyway
- No immediate increases as construction starts.
- However, in the late 60s we do appear to see clusters around the highway.
Riots
Intends to investigate homicide patterns around areas where riot takes place.
(Annoying color changes for a given riot are noted, I just haven’t spent the time to fix it.)
1947: Fernwood Park housing project, August 13th, 1947 to August 16th, 1947
- We do see more homicides in surrounding hexagons the year after riot takes place.
1953: Trumbull Park, 1953-1954
- See homicides in surrounding hexagons.

We see polygons where the percentage of 1% concentration is lower than 10% or 90%. There are very few instances where the difference is large (more than 10 percentage points difference in area mapped), and most occur in the south of Chicago where the maps were a) most distorted and b) the least amount of development matches the present state.
It may be best to use the 90% value rather than the 10% or 1% value in these instances. This is further corroborated by the original maps. The areas plotted below where the difference is highest appear to be of fairly equal size in all three maps.
